Hey all I ran across these tips and I thought they were worth sharing. Some of these I have tried but not all I will do an updated post when I have tried them all.

1. Budweiser Beer conditions the hair

2. Pam cooking spray dries nail polish

3. Cool whip will condition your hair in 15 mins

4. Mayonnaise will kill lice and condition your hair

5. Elmer’s glue- paint on your face allow to dry, peel off and see dead skin and black heads if any come off.

6. Want shiny hair- use brewed Lipton tea

7. Got a Sunburn- empty a large jar of Nestea into your bath water

8. Minor burn- Colgate or crest toothpaste.

9. Burn your tongue- put sugar on it

10. Bee stings- meat tenderizer

11. Chigger bite- preparation H

12. Puffy eyes- Preparation H

13. Paper cut- crazy glue or Chapstick

14. Athletes foot- Cornstarch

15. Fungus on toenails or fingernails- Vicks vapor rub

17. Peanut butter will get scratches out of CDs

18. Bicycle chain sticking- spray with cooking spray

20. Peanut butter will remove ink from dolls faces

21. When doll clothes are hard to put on- sprinkle with cornstarch and they will slide on

22. Heavy dandruff- pour on the vinegar

23. Want an inexpensive body paint – Crisco and food coloring- heat the Crisco in the microwave, pour into an empty container and add the food coloring of your choice.

24. Inexpensive Tie-dye- mix a solution of Kool-Aid in a container, tie rubber bands around a shirt in any fashion you like, and soak

25. To remove wax- take a paper towel and iron over it over the wax stain, it will absorb into the towel.

26. Remove labels off of glassware- rub with peanut butter

27. Baked on food- fill container with water, get a bounce paper softener and the static from the bounce sheet will cause the food to adhere to it, leave overnight. Also, another way is 2 Efferdent tablets and leave overnight

28. Crayon on the wall- Colgate toothpaste and brush it on

29. Dirty grout- Listerine

30. Grease stains- Coke-cola, it will also remove grease from the drive way and corrosion from car batteries.

31. Fleas in your carpet- 20 mule borax, sprinkle on the carpet and let stand for 24 hours, however this is poisonous and can harm small children and pets so be sure to not allow them onto the carpet for the duration that the borax is on it.

32. To keep Fresh cut flowers longer- Add a little Clorox to the water, or 2 Bayer aspirin, or use 7-up instead of water.

33. Gatorade is good for migraine Headaches (Powerade won’t work)

34. When you go to the grocery store to buy bread, have you ever wondered which is the freshest, so you squeeze for softness? Did you know that bread is delivered to the store fresh five days a week Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday? Each day is color coded twist tie. Monday- Blue, Tuesday- green, Thursday-Red, Friday-White, Saturday-Yellow. So if this was a Thursday you would want a red twist tie; nit a white one which would make it almost a week old. The colors go alphabetically by color; blue, green, red, white, yellow. Monday through Saturday. I thought this was interesting and did check the stores and they do have different color twist ties.

Thanks for stopping by and tune in next time for more fun stuff
